Answer:
4/5 or 0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3x = 5/12
<em>cross</em><em> </em><em>multiply</em>
(12×1) = (5×3x)
<em>divide</em><em> </em><em>through</em> <em>by</em> <em>1</em><em>5</em>
x = 12/15
x = 4/5 <em>o</em><em>r</em><em> </em>0.8
One way to understand division is to look at it as repeated
subtraction. When you "divide by" a divisor number, you're
asking "how many times can I subtract this divisor from the
dividend, before the dividend is all used up ?".
Well, if the divisor is ' 1 ', then you're taking ' 1 ' away from the
dividend each time, and the number of times will be exactly
the same as the dividend.
If the divisor is more than ' 1 ', then you subtract more than ' 1 '
from the dividend each time, and the number of times you can
do that is less than the dividend itself.
If the divisor is less than ' 1 ', then you only take away a piece of
' 1 ' each time. You can do that more times than the number in
the dividend, because you only take away a piece each time.
Answer:
